CLARIN - a European Research Infrastructure
Peter WittenburgMax-Planck Institut für
Psycholinguistik, Nijmegen
eResearch - InfrastructuresBozen,

J. Taylor “eScience is about global collaboration in key areas of science and the next generation of infrastructures that will enable it”
Requires new persistent platforms
- to enable researchers to combine resources and tools to solve the big challenges of today (global migration, crisis of cultures and minds)- to increase the efficiency of researchers in the many small
tasks- 40 % of the time of "knowledge workers" is spent, to
find useful material (Forrester Research)
CLARIN GoalBozen,

www.clarin.eu
What: Offer a distributed
Research Infrastructure of integrated and interoperable Language Resources and Tools that serves researchers and students in the SSH
How: allow the combination
of existing and web-accessible digital centers hosting resources in a common federation
offer language tools and services as distributed services with a common web interface
Key Application/Mission Bozen,
16.9.2010
www.clarin.eu
A researcher authenticates at his own organization and creates a virtual collection of resources from different repositories and executing a virtual pipeline of processes on them.
King Arthur failed by the way
will CLARIN fail as well?
CLARIN is pan-European
CLARIN:• 3 Jahre Prep-Phase• ~ 200 members • ~ 25 centre candidates

how to come to a persistent and stable
infrastructure?
how to come to a federation
and how to get access?
how to make all of their LRT
visible?
how to come to interoperable
services?
how to get it all together for
user services?

CLARIN has other very important aspects:• Relation with SSH disciplines - mainly driven by national funds• Education/Training, Help/Support/Advice, Dissemination • Harmonization of licencing and Code of Conducts• Specification of the ERIC legal framework to ensure persistency
... at least IT oriented aspects

why European?Bozen,
16.9.2010
www.clarin.eu
live in a multilingual Europe with a joint historical tradition and need to exploit this strength
many research questions are cross-national
required standards cannot be national
sharing costs in all respects is more efficient
finally it's about global competition also in SSH
Why now?Bozen,
16.9.2010
www.clarin.eu
there is the ESFRI process and all countries are synchronized which is a unique chance to build infrastructures
in total 44 initiatives on the ESFRI roadmap and there is the potential of gain by an eco system of RI
we need to organize our resource domain due to huge increase of data (MPI: 200 TB)
we need to take care to not loose our cultural and scientific memory
there is a huge uptake of RI and there will be many funding streams!!!
who and when?
current EU CLARIN consortium in prep phase (08-10): 32 partners from 24 countries
CLARIN construction phase from 2011; main funds by national programs - but additional funding streams by EC connected to RI
legal issue: foundation of a European Research Infrastructure Consortiums (ERIC) as basis for future with automatic qualification to participate in programs

Thanks for your attention.
CLARIN Usage Scenario
Scenario: A Serbian and a German PhD student want to study language variation in the Balkan area
Resource: via VLO they find all relevant language variation data for that area
Tools/Services: Modern clustering methods available via the web allow to quickly build dialect continua on top of a geographic map; visualization services allow to pipeline this to get a nice output
Visualization of Dialect Data: Clustering
CLARIN Usage Scenario
Scenario: Linguists, sociologists and ethnologists want to study the cultural and linguistic differences of parliament debates in SE, DE and GR about the swine flue and compare how such global problems are dealt with
Resource: building a virtual collections of all debates (Audio, Video, Transkription)
Tools/Services: allowing researchers to analyse and annotate gestures, intonation, word choices, timing etc where partly powerful computers need being used
Vision: in 2011/12 such computational services will be made available in CLARIN 2011
